I moved from Pebble to this watch and one of the most upsetting things was that I'd only recently paid out for a wide body strap for the Pebble. Happily, with a squeeze, it fitted the misfit and looks great.
I've given up entirely with Misfit apps except for their watchface which I've edited to display Google Fit data.
I've installed Heart Rate OS2 on my phone which gives me a nice graph of readings it takes from the watch every 30 minutes. Google Fit is also able to display these readings on the watch.
All in all, great watch, ignoring the in built Misfit apps
~~EDIT: better (and free) heart monitor https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.magic09.magicheartraterecorder~~
BETTER EDIT: You don't need a heart monitoring app! Google Fit reads periodically on this watch anyway and gives a very nice graph on the watch
I always deliver! I hated those 'lock safe' threads :(
You can disable Misfit Activity and Misfit's fitness tracking and instead use Google Fit! Google Fit keeps track of daily step count and what not. You can check it out on the play store here!
I disabled the Misfit apps as I'm more of a Google Fit user. I installed Heart Rate OS2 which takes the readings. The free version measures up to every 30 minutes. If you buy the Pro key, you can set it to every 5 minutes.
You can download any watch face from the Play Store and change it to that if you want. I bought the Pujie Watch Face from the Play Store a while ago when I was using it with my old watch. It works very well on the Vapor!
The thickness is okay for me, since I am used to it. It's 13.5 mm (.53 inches) and it's not too bad, at least for me. The Fossil Q 2nd Gen is the same thickness.
You can buy the watch from Misfit Vapor's official site or check your local stores. I think Kohl's has it, Best Buy, or even Amazon.
I fired up a shell session and ran the df command, and found that the data partition is only 1.6GB. The rest is taken up by system partitions.
Here's what that command looks like on the Misfit Vapor: https://hastebin.com/xiniliwova.sql
I also had a SW3/SWR50 before and decided to "upgrade" to the Vapor. I miss the battery life and the possibility to recharge it with a bog standard MicroUSB cable. The Vapor barely lasts 12 hours for me.
But heart rate tracking is nice (I'm using Heart Trace 2 for that) and that it's waterproof (PROOF!) is awesome. (Although the touch screen gets unusable when wet.) Step tracking seems to work better than on the SW3. At least it tends to show more steps than with the Sony watch.
Apart from that you have to fight with the quirks of "WearOS".
I didn't use the watch long enough without HR tracking to say anything about that. (Also I've switched to Heart Trace in the meantime.)
But taking the watch off the charger at around 10am, it still has 50+% at around 8pm for me. So that's more than enough for a work day. I recharge it in the evening before going to bed (using Sleep as Android at night) and after waking up until I leave for work.
I guess it depends on how tight you wear the watch. The wife doesn't have any issues with the quick release tabs digging in. She usually just switches between the Navy/Rose gold and the Cream Rose gold.
If you want a metal strap have checked out the Lamshaw ones?

i have the TUSITA model I ordered off of amazon for the OG Vapor. It worked well for the time that i used it. Not sure of how it might hold up in the long run.

ok i Bought these because after much googling the size seemed basically correct. it's wet application which i had never done before but seemed simple enough once i followed the video.
I would add a picture to show how it looks but i'm new to reddit and can't find how to do it
I use a tempered glass one and it looks nice when it's on properly. I bought 3 different screen protectors before finally finding one I liked. The first one was just a weird piece of plastic. This is the one I use: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07WJL5J46/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_btf_t1_VumqFbQ5C7HDD
Just ordered this one (was like $13 total w/ tax for 2x of them). I'll let you know how it works when it shows up. Because of that sexy ass raised beveled glass, I've already got a tiny scratch on mine in the week-ish I've already had it from smacking it into stuff... -_- ...
At least it's shallow enough that the screen protector's adhesive should hopefully "fill it in" and make it "disappear".

I'm thinking of getting this but there's not enough reviews to tell if it's good or not

I've disabled the Misfit apps and I'm using Sleep as Android for that. It detects when I'm in a light sleep phase (i.e. moving around more than in deep sleep) and triggers the alarm then.
I've only used it for a few days, but I feel more awake after the alarm went off.
It's the LOOKS watchface that's usually bundled with the LG Sports. I'm currently switching between this one and my long-term favourite Krona Sunlight.
Here you go. Just install it on your phone and search through their pre-made watch faces and you'll find it there. In the Presets section.
A watch spring bar tool is helpful:

I ordered a leather strap from Misfit since they are having a crazy sale and this silicone band:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01ASOG8TY/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I purchased this band fairly cheap of Amazon. It's very similar to the included band and it's available in a wide variety of colors.
I went with this similar one: Xuexy ap for Samsung Gear S2 Classic (SM-R7320/SM-R735) Moto 360 2nd Gen 42mm 2015 Pebble Time Round,Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06WLJZ4Y8
Went on easily and included the quick release pins as well as tools for removing bars and pins. My only complaint or the part where it feels like a $16 band is a tiny gap between the links. I only notice it because I have a Ticwatch 2 Onyx and that is a very nice band in the same style.
This looks like a possibly solution... Its for the Fossil Q charger, but it looks roughly the same dimensions?
Can anyone with both confirm the 33mm diameter?
